PHOENIX - Excalibur Six - The KNight Run 2019

Saturday, 08 June 2019

On Saturday 8th June 2019 we're inviting you to come and join us for the next event in our Excalibur Series 2019.

The Excalibur Six shall henceforth be known as 'The KNight Run'.

The Excalibur Six is the 'Perseverance Conquest' and is an evening event beginning at 4.00pm and will be a 6 hour timed event to be held on the same day as our D-Day Air Run - so if you're joining us for the D-Day Triple followed by the Thames Path Potter then this is a chance to really test your perseverance and complete your quest for a 2 in 1, a 3 in 2 or even a 5 in 4 ... !!

The idea of many of our running events is to get you to push your limits, just a little bit, and to try new things and so the Excalibur Six is a chance to perhaps complete your very first evening run.

Our Excalibur events are a series of twelve running events or 'conquests' for you to complete across 2019. Each one is an awesome running event in its own right with its own awesome medal, so you can choose to complete one, two, three or perhaps all of them!

This event is a 6 hour timed event, with a marathon specific option, where you choose from 5km / 10km / half / marathon to ultra marathon, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile, out and back, course along the beautiful river Thames. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one lap and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 6 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal(s).

Running will start at 4.00pm and there is the potential to finish at dusk or in the dark depending on how quickly and how far you run.

Don't forget - you must use a head torch if running after 8.00pm. We highly advise that all runners bring a head torch, even if you expect to be finished before this time.

Places will be strictly limited.

Registration open from 8am

Off road trail, the terrain is riverside towpath. The overall course has no elevation gain / loss making this a flat and fast route.
